See https://github.com/phillipberndt/pqiv/releases/tag/2.3 (This release is one month old, but was somehow missed by the last euscan sweep. Hence the bug report.) pqiv now supports alternative backends to support more image formats. Each backend is optional, so this version might require some new use-flags. The backends are named poppler -> PDF support, requires app-text/poppler spectre -> PS suppot, requires app-text/libspectre wand -> ImageMagick support, e.g. PSD, requires media-gfx/imagemagick All versions of said dependencies should be supported. The configure-script per default auto detects which backends to build. The alternatives are to either supply an explicit, whitespace separated list using the --backends option or to use autotools-like syntax --with[out]-<backend name>. The default backend is called gdkpixbuf and should probably be always included.
2.5 is out, see https://github.com/phillipberndt/pqiv/releases/tag/2.5 The release features some new optional backends, libav -> Video support through ffmpeg or libav archive_cbx -> Comic book support through libarchive Also, pqiv is actively used on Raspian, so you can safely add the arm keyword if you'd like.
pqiv 2.2 in the tree is from Jun 2014, meanwhile pqiv 2.6 was released in Jul 2016. Unfortunately 2.2 appears to have a bug on my machine, it appears to miscalculate the dpi and slightly "smears" (rescales?) pictures :-/ Can we have a version bump of the version in the tree? Thanks!
